One-loop effective scalar-tensor gravity
Boris Latosh
Abstract
Abstract Non-minimal interactions are proven to be generated at the one-loop level in simple scalar-tensor gravity models. The John interaction from the Fab Four class is generated. The interaction affects the speed of gravitational waves in the contemporary Universe. Its role in low-energy phenomenology is discussed. Brans-Dicke-like interaction is generated in a non-minimal model. An opportunity to generate a dynamic low-energy Newton constant is addressed.
